jonbgood,
I definitely want a set for $30. That's better than leagalmate and ebay. Will you be selling them here? Please reply as I don't want to miss this!

Sorry for the long wait, I finally got the parts today. See eBay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=6785468525 - title: CD DVD Print Tray Kit Canon PIXMA iP3000 iP4000 iP5000. Starting price is $24.99. As I mentioned earlier, this is a multiple item listing for 10 sets, so everyone will pay the same price as the lowest successful bidder.

The base unit cover itself is identical to the one on the US models, but instead of the insert that closes the CD tray opening, this one has a slot with 2 spring loaded rollers that push the tray against the bottom rollers. This is definitely an improvement over leaving the slot open, since the printer now moves the tray completely in and out by itself, and it also looks exactly like the original CDR version, without the ugly holes.

I'm shippping the complete base unit, but I strongly recommend to just replace the insert. It snaps easily in place after removing the original part that covers the hole. It appears that replacing the entire inner cover would require some major dissasembly with a good chance to break something, but if someone figures it out, please post.

Hi

I placed a bid, does this means that until the bids reach 10 you close them and we get our items?

no problem Blake, and thx for the update. that's great, I am looking forward to use the tray.

I did the firmware hack to my Pixma IP5000. it became IP5100, and later I had the IP5000 (Ltr) in magenta. So it's supposed to print dvd's.

I took out the cover and made my own tray, also modified the registry and the cd print options appears on my pixma software, but still I get the close inner cover msg., when I try to print. It may be possible it's my home made tray? or there is also something I'm missing here?

I bough an original dvd tray on ebay today, since it seems I'm not that good at cutting, tryed it twice already.

I will be shipping from Greenville SC, 29605 and since they appear to be getting here rather sluggishly, I will be shipping to everyone (Except Canada) Priority Delivery, which is 1-2 Day shipping for most areas.
Regards,
Blake
